homestay program, tawau sabah

DAY 5

it was the last day spending time with them in tawau, woke up early in the morning, packed everything and headed to school with wen jye

with wen jye's parents,
thanks for taking care of me during those 5 days

Sir Vincent brought us around tawau and we did our last shopping for souvenirs :)
oh ya just so you know, there's no big shopping malls in tawau, there's only one KFC, one pizza hut, no mcD's after troop meeting, no baskin robbins, so every 31st doesnt mean anything except for 31st of august, no starbucks, no coffee bean, and they dont shop so often like people in kl, now you know why tawau people are so rich..lol

but kl people dont see sea so often..lol

had this for breakfast...

reached tawau airport at 9..

not forgetting to thank miss fiona and mr euwing for helping us to applied for this program until 3 in the morning..

much love.

DAY 4

on the last day of camp, they had an exhibition for the 30th anniversary celebration, we cooked, built a campsite & a model campsite, halangan komando, and etc etc

in the morning, i went to the market with few of the scouts, everything there seems like its more expensive then the market in pj, but they sell really fresh seafood :)

after market, went back and started cooking in their big bilik masakan, they have plenty of stoves there, so basically if you take tukung masak there in a patrol with 6 people, you can finish it in 30 minutes instead of taking 2 hours just to wait for one small stove :p

don't ask why am i always the one cutting the chicken :/

mine and wenjye's green bean dessert :)

daryl's curry chicken..

my fried chicken :D

the half-cooked roti lilit
